How can I maintain capacity for a combiner in FlexSim?

While learning and working on FlexSim, I'm just confused how I can maintain the capacity for the machine (combiner), for example, 500pcs/hour + working mode (setup time: 2 hours, next operates for 10 hours before being turned off and wait until the next day to repeat the same schedule). Tks for taking time to consider my questions.

A constant throughput rate is just a question of choosing the correct process time and always having input available. Note that the process time of the combiner only starts once all material has been collected.

Both the setup and down times can be implemented through a time table.
